Jeremiah 25:34-36

Easy-to-Read Version

³⁴ Shepherds, you should be leading the sheep.
    Start crying, you great leaders!
    Roll around on the ground in pain, you leaders of the sheep.
It is now time for your slaughter.
    You will be scattered everywhere, like pieces flying from a broken jar.
³⁵ There will be no place for the shepherds to hide.
    They will not escape.
³⁶ I hear the shepherds shouting.
    I hear the leaders of the sheep crying,
    because the Lord is destroying their pastures.
